This is the sequel to In The Name of Love. Here is also a new chapter. Thanks to RoxyFoxyChick, Crystal Saturn, YunalescaDagger, hpever, mew bunnyboo. I won't be able to update for about three weeks, I hope this can hold you over until then. Remember to Review. The long story presented in the last chapter will be told here.
When she first moved in, Darien slept on the couch while Serena got the bed. After about a week, Serena could see how groggy he was getting. SO, the following night when Darien was preparing for bed she asked why he was sleeping on the couch. He looked at her like she was crazy. She said they were dating so it was crazy to not let him sleep in his bed. They haven't done anything though, at least not to be told yet.
On to the Story
Serena yawned, looking over at Darien still asleep. He looked adorable when he slept.
"Wake up sleepy-head. You have work." Serena was now nose to nose with Darien.
"Huh," he opened his eyes to stare into crystal baby blue eyes. "Am I in heaven?" He said as he gave Serena a big hug.
"Only, if I'm in heaven too." Serena smiled then pouted. "I wouldn't want you there without me; those girls would go crazy to get their hands on you."
Darien sighed and he threw his hands in the air. "They already want me, but I'm taken by the most gorgeous girl in the world, and the future queen of the Earth and Moon." He laid his head back on his pillow.
Serena leaned over and gave him a sweet but quick kiss, "I love you too."
"I didn't say that Usako." Darien smirked.
Serena flung her pillow at him. "Darien! No kisses for you for the rest of the week."
Darien pretended to whine. "I would die without your kisses." Darien gave her his cutest puppy dog eyes. "Pweeez forgive me Sere."
"No, you deserve your punishment." Serena laughed.
"Fine then I will just have to take them." Darien leaned over to kiss her, only to find her at the door laughing at him. He got up and started to chase her.
"I'll get you for that." Darien yelled after her.
"Only in your dreams," Serena laughed. She was at one end of the couch and Darien at the other end.
Darien moved left and Serena moved right. Darien faked right and Serena faked left. "Sneaky."
"Remember, I used to run to school every morning." Serena stuck her tongue at him.
He tried to fake right again. "I should remember you always bumped into me."
"I can't help it if you always got in my way." Serena countered Darien's right step with a left step.
He jumped onto the couch. Serena made it for the kitchen. "Darien whined, "That hurt!"
"Watch what you jump onto next time then." Serena laughed.
Serena took a breather, she was sure it would take a minute for him to move off of the couch. She reached for a glass when two arms surrounded her. He dragged her to a corner of the kitchen. She fought, but he wouldn't let her win. He leaned over and kissed her. "I win."
She pouted, "Fine you win, but I get the bathroom first." She walked into the bathroom and shut the door. The shower could be heard from the front room. An hour later they had managed to get dressed. Darien dropped Serena off at Andrew and Mina's house before he went to work.
Darien's Work: Darien's Day
Darien walked into a big complex. Darien thought about becoming a doctor, but the crime fighting kept him from his dream. He became and architect instead. He wasn't the best, but he did real well. Companies fought over him. He decided to work at Tokyo Architecture and Designs. It was a prestigious company and it paid well.
At about noon he called Andrew.
"Hey, how are the girls doing? Serena left her cell phone home again." Darien asked Andy.
"Good we are talking? Everything is going well. You want to talk to her?" Andrew questioned.
"No, she might get more suspicious then she already is. She questioned me at dinner last night." Darien sighed. "And I used to be good at hiding things from her."
"Only your feelings! Hatred was a bright token of your love for her." Andrew joked.
"Andy, I know, but I don't show her anger anymore, once in a while we bicker. I show her that I love her." Darien sighed.
"Yeah after what though, she died and came back to life." Andrew sighed. He wouldn't know any of this if he didn't agree with Darien to spy on Serena and the girls at the fair. Serena a princess, who would have guessed and his friend was the prince of earth. Amazing the things you find out by spying.
"Actually a little before that, but she gave me the cold shoulder then." Darien added.
"She had all the right." Andrew joked. "Darien, there is a small problem you have to worry about."
"I'm all ears." Darien replied.
"Mina called me earlier to say that Serena was getting nightmares about you breaking up with her, so she thinks you want to break up with her. She said she called the girls and that they will be here tomorrow to talk." Andrew sighed.
"Not again, well I'm going to propose anyway. Serena better get that idea right out of her mind right now. I love her too much to lose her." Darien sighed.
"Well I have to go serve the wonderful Serena." Andrew smiled.
"Keep her happy." Darien said, "At least until I get their, then I will keep her happy."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, will do." Andrew laughed.
"Well I got to get back to work." Darien hanged up the phone. He looked at the picture of Serena on his desk. She was smiling at something past the camera. She looked so beautiful. After tonight she would be officially his to spoil not that he didn't spoil her already.
Serena and Mina: Serena's Day
Serena got out of the vehicle; she blew Darien a kiss before going into Mina and Andrew's house.
"Mina, are you home?" Serena asked.
"Why wouldn't I?" Mina came out of the kitchen, "I was just cleaning up a bit."
"Doesn't Andrew usually do that?" Serena questioned.
"Yes but I wanted to do something special for him." Mina smiled.
"You did, you married him." Serena smiled; she was the maid of honor at Mina's wedding. The other girls were jealous, but they understood what the head honcho's of the scouts wanted, was to be done.
"Yeah, that's more then can be said about you and Darien." Mina mentally slapped herself in the head.
"I can't change that. So what are our plans for the day?" Serena smiled.
Serena would always go off when Mina said that comment. "Are you ok, Serena?"
"I think Darien is going to break up with me today." Serena looked at the ground.
Mina blinked, from what she heard it was the complete opposite. Anyways, Darien would never hurt her like that. "Why would he do that?"
"I have been getting these nightmares saying that he was going to break up with me." Serena looked like she was about to cry.
"Serena, why haven't you told us about this before?" Mina was beginning to get worried. The enemy might be coming back.
"I didn't want to believe it." Serena let a tear fall down her face.
Mina picked up her chin so they were eye to eye. Mina wiped away the tear. "You listen to me; we will talk to the girls about this tomorrow, when they come to town." Mina thought this might be a good way to help Darien's cause, and boost Serena's spirit.
"Ok."
"I have a great idea." Mina smiled making Serena laugh.
"What is your idea?" Serena looked back at Mina.
"We get you all nice and dressed up for tonight." Mina smiled.
"Why? He is just going to break up with me." Serena sighed.
"If you are too beautiful, he can't break you with you." Mina and Serena laughed.
"Let's go then." They cheered together.
"Before we go I have to do one thing. Why don't you get a snack?" Mina smiled.
"You don't have to say snack twice to me." Serena laughed as she walked to the kitchen.
Mina went upstairs to her room. She closed the door and called Andrew.
"Golden Crown Arcade, how can I help you?" Andrew answered.
"Hi, Hun, we have a slight problem." Mina sighed.
"What's wrong Mina?" Andrew questioned.
"Negaverse?" Mina half questioned and half answered.
"I thought they were gone." Andrew asked.
"I did too, but Serena is getting nightmares about Darien breaking up with her." Mina seemed very bothered.
"Do you think it could be normal? You know, no crazy thing going after her." Andrew wished.
"No she said she remembers Darien dumping her, almost like a lost memory. After Darien dumps her he dates some girl that Serena doesn't recognize. That means they are trying to screw with her memories. Giving her nightmares so she starts to worry and then changing her memories to make it like he always dumps her." Mina slumps into a chair next to the bed.
"How long has this been going on?" Andrew questioned.
"I don't know. It has to be a while though because it is starting to get to her, not when she is around Darien, but enough around her friends." Mina sighed. "Look I better go, talk to you later Honey."
Serena and Mina reached the mall. The first thing they wanted to do was find shoes.
They went into the costume shop. They needed some laughs and giggles.
"Do you think that if I scare him he will stay?" Serena questioned.
"No that will make him run away. At least make him hide under the bed." Mina laughed, looking at a clown costume.
"I could keep him under there forever." Serena smiled, "then he couldn't leave me."
"I don't think he is going to leave you." Mina smiled. "Especially when he knows that four very angry scouts will come after him and leave him marked for life."
Serena jumped as she looked at a gruesome mask. "You wouldn't really do that would you?"
"Only if you asked," Mina grabbed Serena's hand making Serena scream louder. "Let's go get shoes."
They went shoe shopping but it wasn't very interesting. Serena tried on almost every shoe on in the store before picking a beautiful sliver high heel shoe.
They arrived at the Golden Crown for lunch. They were talking to Andrew.
"Hey Hun, how is your day?" Mina smiled.
"So far so good, and you Serena?" He looked over at the girl sipping her milkshake. She will always be like his younger sister.
"Umm. Ok." Serena didn't want to stop drinking her milkshake.
The phone rang. Andrew picked it up and then shoed the girls away. (This is the conversation between Andrew and Darien above.)
I hope this is enough to last about three weeks. Please review. See you.
